Iowa will always be my team, but you guys are now my number 2. Kick ass this season guys.

10 year ago... I was trying to be nice. I think the BigTen is pretty tough this year and could use you guys. Especially at bowl time.

At least we can beat ISU

God I wish you guys were playing in the BigTen this year! Go Hawks!!

You guys just became THE TEAM of the entire BigTen Conference. Enjoy it! The entire country will worship you as BigTen Champions headed to the Rose Bowl to kick the crap out of the Pac-10 team. Enjoy the feeling. Granted, this is if you beat Ohio State, Michigan, Iowa, Penn State.

Based on how the BigTen operates now you will play different teams each year, with only certain teams being a certainty every year. Every team you listed sucks badly except for Ohio State and Michigan. Trust me, you will have a tough go with Iowa, Wisconsin and Illinois.

It actually started before Adi. We were doing it my first semester in '06. I asked somebody why we did it and they told me the kicker was weak and needed some motivation to help him kick a touchback. Good God! The BigTen Chancellors just voted to let you guys in. You really are members as of July 1, 2011 - academics earlier. It's got to feel weird knowing you are members of the BigTen and playing old Big 12 teams for one more season.

Well guys, it's official. Welcome to the BigTen.

You guys need to develop a sense of humor. Once you join the BigTen you will have all our respect and fans, especially at bowl time. Some of those songs are just good fun you sing in bars. Michigan receives a lot of "hatred", but OSU gets the respect, that's all. There's a lot of history in the BigTen.

Hey beefalo fan (ahahahaaha) the BigTen is SEC's bitch? Iowa has beat Florida, South Carolina, LSU in bowl games. Of all schools in the entire country I have to say I really really hate all Florida schools, and LSU. With Nebraska joining the BigTen the SEC is going to hate going to bowl games from now on. You'll enjoy being creamed by Washington, Washington State, Oregon, Stanford, UCLA, USC(oh wait), Arizona State and I guess Texas. I can't believe I'm saying this, but now that NE is in the B10 - Go Big Red!

Don't you start your fight song like it's a polka song when you are thrashing an opponent? Everybody in the stadium starts swaying back and forth?

Soooo, now that Nebraska is going to be part of the Big Ten. Would you guys assist us Big Ten types in learning about your songs/lore/traditions/how you celebrate your school? For example, we Iowa fans sing a rather naugthy version of the Michigan fight song: "Hail all you mother-f00ckers, hail all you big co--su--rs, hail hail to Michigan a cesspool of a school". We don't really have anything for Ohio State as they are the overlords of the Big Ten and we are just happy to beat them once in awhile. When we do we get drunk and play polka music. We have trophy contests, etc. Lots of jokes. Marching bands that kick ass. So inform us all about Nebraska. So that when you go to your bowl game we can help celebrate.

This Chip Brown guy is a douche Gee, you'll have to nominate him to the Woodshed like you did me. Apparently you Big 12 types are a little sensitive. All good fun. Welcome to the Big Ten.

Thanks for the doubts in our niceties you freaking cornlover. In all honesty, most of the animosities in the Big Ten tend to be school based (Ohio State vs. Michigan) and often are more of a joke than anything-- it depends. Except we all tend to hate Notre Dame. And you may be surprised to know many Ohio State people get angered by Penn State fans the most, there is a certain respect for Michigan-- plus they've been so cute and docile lately. Totally agree. I will root for my beloved Big Ten (now including Nebraska) anytime over any conference. Imagine the fan base Nebraska just gained? God I just hope Texas doesn't join. I hate Texas. They can replace USC in the Pac-10. I'll have to get used to rooting for Nebraska when they aren't playing Iowa.

Good rundown Buckeye fan. Can you imagine ABC coverage of Nebraska @ Ohio State?! Gonna be amazing.

Thanks for proving why i cant stand most Iowa fans.. grew up a Gophers fan and now a Husker fan.. GO HOME HAWKEYE! Pick a team. I'd choose Nebraska over Minnesota any day.
